San Francisco Giants Are World Series Champs, Bumgarner Named MVP

Congratulations to the 2014 World Series Champions San Francisco Giants, who defeated the Kansas City Royals with a 3-2 win in Game 7 on Wednesday night at Kauffman Stadium.

The Giants are the first National League team to win three World Series in five years in 68 years.

Madison Bumgarner was named the World Series MVP. The 25-year-old lefty tossed five scoreless innings in relief in Game 7 on just two days rest. He allowed only one run in 21 innings over his three games pitched in the series, including a shutout in Game 5 in San Francisco.

It was a heck of a series, hopefully it will be us in the near future.
